Re: New Book on Squeak Seaside

Hi, does this book use the development image or the standard image? I know that the standard image and the development image differ in regards to what appears in the various popup-menus.

It looked like the stock image to me - I guess the developer image is
changing too quickly at the moment. Oscar was saying that they'd be
interested in producing a second edition after this has bedded in, so
if they were thinking of updating the pictures, it might be useful to
freeze a developer image so that new starters get to experience the
most attractive version of Squeak.

Cheers,
Michael

Can't one download any of Damien's old developer images pretty much
forever? (For values of "forever" that are applicable on the Internet,
anyway.)

Fair point. What I was getting at was that Damien and the authors
could agree on a version that contains a good set of attractive
features for new users, and nothing too bleeding edge, and explicitly
re-label that as the "Squeak By Example, version 2" official image,
use it for the screenshots in the book, and give it good prominence on
the download sites.

Cheers, Michael.

Re: Re: New Book on Squeak Seaside

Hi, I would like that being that the standard and the dev image differ in regards to what may appear when accessing the GUI elements?

Sounds like a good idea. I haven't found that Damien's images by default
carry anything too scary. :-)

And I've had no stability issues with it.

But I'll try to do sommething like that with my writings, too.

work a lot, stack stuff such as columns, have fun together and talk
less :)
Thanks :)
The simple way to thanks us is to buy the book (we make no profit) so
that we can say that
we sell a lot to the people that laugh at us :)
